What is NGRM ?

CCASS

NGRM

Decommission risk functions to NGRM

• Single risk engine for risk monitoring & calculation for ALL markets, i.e. Hong Kong,

Shanghai & Shenzhen markets

• Initial Margin, applicable to Hong Kong market only :

flat margin rate portfolio margining

• Stress Testing for Default Fund (DF), applicable to Hong Kong market only :

same scenarios for ALL multiple product-specific scenarios per security

New Infrastructure

Operational Highlights under NGRM

■ No change in current HK$5 million margin credit and HK$1 million DF creditMargin and DF credit

will continue

Funding

ProjectionCPs’ IM and DF requirements can fluctuate as they are calculated based on the risk of CPs’ portfolios

Margin simulation tools

(see later slides)

■ Facilitate CPs’ internal processes related to risk control and margin estimation

■ Allow CPs to replicate and simulate margin requirement for existing portfolios and

hypothetical trades

■ Practice Session will be provided for CPs before official launch

Specific Stock Collateral

(SSC) and Specific Cash

Collateral (SCC)

■ Relevant settlement reports (based on new margin requirement) will still be available via existing CCASS

■ Timing of most existing operations remain unchanged

■ Excess margin is refunded at day-end when exposure is reduced (i.e. upon settlement)

Other operational processes remain the same

■ CNS stock positions covered by SSC or SCC are exempted from margin

calculation

Parameters for Portfolio Margin

(1) In reality, RPFs are released on each business day at around 20:00. However, it is assumed that the same sample RPF is applied throughout the illustration for simplicity.

Page 35: NGRM BRIEFING & WORKSHOP€¦ · •Stress Testing for Default Fund (DF), ... Aug 2019 Sep 2019 Oct 2019 Nov 2020 Apr 2020 May 2020 Jun 2020 Jul 2020 Aug 2020 Sep 2020 Oct 2020 Nov

Calculation of Aggregated Market Risk Components

(1) According to the sample RPF, the confidence level for HVaR (HVaR_CL) is determined as 99.4%. As there are 1,000 scenarios for HVaR in the example, (1-99.4%) x 1,000 = 6 scenarios

(2) According to the sample RPF, the confidence level for SVaR (SVaR_CL) is determined as 98%. As there are 1,018 scenarios for SVaR in the example, (1-98%) x 1,018 = 21 scenarios

(rounding up to the nearest integer)

Tier P Summary Steps

1. Portfolio Margin

(FieldType 1,2)

Calculate the HVaR and SVaR scenario returns respectively for the portfolio

Rank and identify the worst scenarios for HVaR at 99.4% confidence level(1) & SVaR at 98% confidence level(2)

Calculate Portfolio Margin for the scenarios identified above, subject to portfolio margin floor

5. Flat Rate Margin

(FieldType 3)

Aggregate absolute market values of long and short positions separately

Choose the higher of aggregated long / aggregated short positions

Multiply the higher aggregated positions by the flat margin rate and flat rate margin multiplier

2. Liquidation Risk

Add-on (LRA)

(FieldType 4,5)

Instrument-level LRA:

Calculate delta equivalent position for each underlying group

Compare delta equivalent position with instrument-level threshold

Portfolio-level LRA:

Calculate beta hedge position for each underlying group

Compare beta hedge position with portfolio-level threshold (hedging instrument threshold)

3. Structured

Product Add-on

(FieldType 6)

Identify instruments applicable to Structured Product Add-on (i.e., listed under FieldType 6 and in long positions)

Calculate the add-on with the instrument-specific tick size multiplier and minimum tick size stated in the RPF

Tier N

Identify relevant instruments with unsettled position (i.e., traded before ex-date)

Calculate Corporate Action Position Margin with the corresponding add-on scenario stated under FieldType 7 4. Corporate Action

Day 1 Portfolio: 700.HK (Portfolio Margin)

i. Calculate the scenario returns for HVaR and SVaR

ii. Rank the scenarios and identify the worst 6 scenarios(1) for HVaR and 21 scenarios(2) for SVaR

iii. Calculate Portfolio Margin for the scenarios identified above and take absolute value

iv. Check the portfolio margin floor:

HVaR Scenario Returns

1 2 … 1,000

700 (3,477,500) 3,555,000 … 1,000

SVaR Scenario Returns

1 2 … 1,018

700 (10,256,500) (23,218,250) … 17,573,750

(1) (1-99.4% (HVaR_CL)) x 1,000 (HVaR_Scen_Count) scenarios = 6 scenarios, rounding up to the nearest integer

(2) (1-98% (SVaR_CL)) x 1,018 (SVaR_Scen_Count) scenarios = 21 scenarios, rounding up to the nearest integer

(3) Set as the higher of gross long/ short market values of all instruments subject to portfolio margin

(4) Portfolio Margin Floor Rate is currently set as 2.5%, but it is subject to change from time to time. HKSCC will issue circulars to notify the market before any change is made.

HVaR (75%) + SVaR (25%)

Average of the worst 6 HVaR scenarios* 75% + Average of the worst 21 SVaR scenarios * 25% = 4,892,225

ii. Rank the scenarios and identify the worst 6 scenarios(1) for HVaR and 21 scenarios(2) for SVaR

iii. Calculate Portfolio Margin for the scenarios identified above and take absolute value

iv. Check the portfolio margin floor:

Day 1 Portfolio: Adding 26883.HK (Portfolio Margin)

(1) (1-99.4% (HVaR_CL)) x 1,000 (HVaR_Scen_Count) scenarios = 6 scenarios, rounding up to the nearest integer

(2) (1-98% (SVaR_CL)) x 1,018 (SVaR_Scen_Count) scenarios = 21 scenarios, rounding up to the nearest integer

(3) Set as the higher of gross long / short market values of all instruments subject to portfolio margin

(4) Portfolio Margin Floor Rate is currently set as 2.5%, but it is subject to change from time to time. HKSCC will issue circulars to notify the market before any change is made.

HVaR (75%) + SVaR (25%)

Average of the worst 6 scenarios * 75% + Average of the worst 21 scenarios* 25% = 5,017,059

ii. Rank the scenarios and identify the worst 6 scenarios(1) for HVaR and 21 scenarios(2) for SVaR

iii. Calculate Portfolio Margin for the scenarios identified above and take absolute value

iv. Check the portfolio margin floor:

Day 2 Portfolio: Adding 700.HK (Portfolio Margin – Cross-day Netting)

(1) (1-99.4% (HVaR_CL)) x 1,000 (HVaR_Scen_Count) scenarios = 6 scenarios, rounding up to the nearest integer.

(2) (1-98% (SVaR_CL)) x 1,018 (SVaR_Scen_Count) scenarios = 21 scenarios, rounding up to the nearest integer.

(3) Set as the higher of gross long / short market values of all instruments subject to portfolio margin

(4) Portfolio Margin Floor Rate is currently set as 2.5%, but it is subject to change from time to time. HKSCC will issue circulars to notify the market before any change is made.

HVaR (75%) + SVaR (25%)
